You can try ans adapt the following script (mix of perl and shell) :

Code:
perl -e '
        #!/usr/bin/perl -w
        use strict;
        my @infos;
        foreach my $file ( <*> )
        {
           next if ( -d $file ) ;
           my @d = localtime ((stat($file))[9]);
           push @infos, sprintf("%04d.%02d.%02d %02d.%02d.%02d %s\n", $d[5]+1900,$d[4]+1,$d[3],$d[2],$d[1],$d[0],$file);
        }
        
        print sort @infos;
        ' |
while read date time file
do
   printf "%s %s : " $date $time
   if [ "$date" != "$prv_date" ]
   then
      prv_date=$date;
      first_file=$file;
      echo "$file"
   else
      echo "cat $file >> $first_file && rm $file"
   fi
done

get_midi_length

get_midi_length(3alleg4)					  Allegro manual					  get_midi_length(3alleg4)

NAME

       get_midi_length - Determines the total playing time of a midi, in seconds. Allegro game programming library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       int get_midi_length(MIDI *midi);

DESCRIPTION

       This function will simulate playing the given MIDI, from start to end, to determine how long it takes to play. After calling this function,
       midi_pos will contain the negative number of beats, and midi_time the length of the midi, in seconds.

       Note that any currently playing midi is stopped when you call this function.  Usually you would call it before play_midi, to get the length
       of the midi to be played, like in this example:

	  length = get_midi_length(my_midi);
	  play_midi(my_midi);
	  do {
	     pos = midi_time;
	     textprintf_ex(screen, font, 0, 0, c, -1, "%d:%02d / %d:%02d
",
		pos / 60, pos % 60, length / 60, length % 60);
	     rest(100);
	  } while(pos <= length);

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the value of midi_time, the length of the midi.
